Who are our customers, what do they buy or sell and how does BONVU help?

PRIVATE INDIVIDUALS

These BONVU customers purchase from all types of online sources such as large online stores, small boutique stores as well as from individuals via EBAY, AMAZON or CRAIGSLIST. Some of the most common items are designer / name brand clothing, shoes, auto and motorcycle parts, electronics and computer, sports equipment, musical instruments, beauty products, perfume, collectibles, etc.

BONVU services are especially valuable when:

  • The seller doesn’t ship overseas

  • The seller doesn’t accept foreign credit cards or other forms of payment

  • The seller’s shipping method is too expensive

  • The seller is not familiar with international trade or customs documentation

  • Seller’s packaging is oversized, BONVU repackaging reduces shipping cost substantially

  • They want to be sure that the items are packaged safely

  • They want to make sure that the items are insured properly

Through the BONVU.COM website, customers provide item details (description, value) through an online interface. These details become part of the customs and import documentation which is the basis for import duty and tax calculation.

SMALL & MID-SIZE BUSINESSES

These BONVU customers purchase items in the US or distribute their own products here. Typical purchase volumes exceed what an individual would buy but are still too small to justify large scale import via an ocean freight container.

  • They want to make sure that the items are insured properly
